356. Army near Haikang
It is dozens of miles north of Haikang County.
The yellow dust filled the sky, and tens of thousands of troops were moving forward in a mighty manner. The horse army in front of them shocked the countless yellow dust.
Zhao Dongting personally led an army of nearly 100,000, and now he is finally approaching Hikvision.
The Qiongzhou Army, Tianxian, Tiankui, Tiangang and other 15 armies, and the Beggars' Gang newly established Tianjie Army, and Song Bitao's two thousand men, totaling more than 45,000. In addition, there were more than 30,000 surrendered soldiers in Mengtuo, more than 16,000 surrendered soldiers in Tuoheer, and more than 16,000 surrendered soldiers in Tuoheer, and more than 5,000 surrendered soldiers in Tuoheer, Wang Lei and Yang Fan.
The army is only a few thousand apart.
The army spread and there was no end.
The horse army spoke in front, and the infantry were accompanying the back. The Song army and the surrendered soldiers intersected to prevent the surrendered soldiers from mutiny.
With such military strength, we could not take the 50,000 Dali Army to heart. Unfortunately, the surrendered soldiers of the Yuan army obviously could not be greatly used at this time.
Although Mengtuo has surrendered to the Song Dynasty, who can conclude that he will not take advantage of the confrontation between Dali and Song Dynasty again?
If he could help the Dali army destroy the Song Dynasty, his previous mistakes could be offset. It is impossible to say that the Yuan Dynasty emperor Kublai Khan would have to reward him heavily.
Therefore, in the Song army, whether it was Zhao Dongting, Wen Tianxiang and others, they were all guarded against these surrendered soldiers.
The genius Qin Han is already extremely scary. If Monto turns against each other again, they are very likely to capsize in the gutter.
Zhao Dongting had already tried the pain of surrendering soldiers turning against each other twice.
When the army was advancing, the surrendered soldiers were always guarded by the Song army holding sharp blades, without armor, but just sharing the task of escorting the baggage.
Zhao Dongting sat in the dragon chariot, but still couldn't help but look back from time to time, for fear of a mutiny by the surrendered soldiers behind him.
But occasionally when I look back, I will look into the north. I think, but I don’t know if Le Wugong is going to send Le Chan back to Baicao Valley at this time.
Monto galloped and followed the dragon chariot with his horse.
Inside the dragon chariot, there are Wen Tianxiang, Hong Wutian, and Tulando, the Pearl Princess of the Yuan Dynasty.
Zhao Dongting did not intend to kill Tulando. After tortured her in Xiujiang Town, he was actually quite polite to her. Even when the army was advancing, she was allowed to sit in the carriage without letting her suffer the turbulence of the war horse. Tulando was of great use after all, and the agreement between him and Li Wangyuan was entirely based on the Princess Mingzhu. If Princess Mingzhu died, it would be difficult to say whether Li Wangyuan would still raise troops to help Song resist the Yuan Dynasty.
Princess Mingzhu gradually regained her temperament and often couldn't help but lift the curtains of the dragon chariot.
After just lifting the curtains, she just angrily scolded Monto, who was riding a horse outside, a dog slave, a low slave, etc.
Mengtuo surrendered to Song, which undoubtedly made her, the princess of the Yuan Dynasty, extremely angry.
And Monto often only blushed and could not say anything.
After all, he was still concerned about the relationship between master and servant. Otherwise, he would have been able to curse Princess Mingzhu to make him feel bloody.
If she hadn't had any idea to assassinate Emperor Song, if she hadn't been assassinated and captured by Le Wubao, how could he be so far in such a situation?
Even if it weren't for her capture that the Yuan army was afraid of being attacked and delayed the fighter's plane, the Song Dynasty might have been dead in name only, right?
Monto was not angry with Turandot. However, considering his age, he was not good at engaging in Turandot.
Zhao Dongting was in the carriage, and when he heard Tulando scolding Monto from time to time, he felt leisurely and contented.
If Monto couldn't help but scold the Pearl Princess, then he really wanted to see Monto.
He had no choice but to surrender to Song, but if he still scolded Tolando, it would only mean that he did not have much loyalty in his heart.
Loyalty and righteousness is the most adorable feature of people in this era and it is also the thing that Zhao Dongting cares about the most. If he doesn’t even have the heart of loyalty and righteousness, no matter how many Yuan army Monto led to surrender to the Song Dynasty, Zhao Dongting would not take him seriously. Because people without loyalty and righteousness will only be fences, and it is very likely that he will surrender to the Song Dynasty today and continue to return to the Yuan Dynasty tomorrow.
The sun gradually turned west, and the sun was no longer so dazzling, and it turned yellow quietly.
The army rested every half an hour, and now it was closer to Hikkam. The infantry behind finally stopped sweating profusely.
The coolness seemed to spread gradually on this land.
Suddenly dozens of horses rode back in front of the army, reaching the side of Zhao Dongting's dragon chariot.
The leader is Yue Peng.
After arriving next to the dragon chariot, Yue Peng shouted to the dragon chariot: "Master, there is a canyon several miles ahead. Are we camping here?"
He suggested that camping here is naturally well-founded. Canyons are often the most suitable place for ambushing.
And the Dali Army doesn't know where it is now.
Zhao Dongting pondered for a few seconds when he heard this, opened the curtains and looked at the sky outside, and said, "Did you send a scout to investigate?"
It should be a while before dark, but he didn't want to camp in the canyon.
What if the Dali army arrived day and night and then lie on both sides of the canyon?
By then, even if they knew that the Dali Army was lying there, it would not be easy for them to destroy the Dali Army or rush through the canyon.
Yue Peng was slightly stunned, then he realized Zhao Dongting's thoughts and quickly replied, "I'll send someone to visit you now."
He pulled his horse and rushed forward to the army.
The army was still moving forward slowly.
Soon, dozens of cavalry rushed out of the army and rushed forward.
After dozens of minutes, the army was only two miles away from the canyon. From a distance, you can see two mountains standing apart like a sect god.
Dozens of scouts also finished exploring the way at this time, and rushed back to the army again at this time.
After Yue Peng hurriedly asked about the situation, he rode his horse to the dragon chariot again, "Prince, there are no Dali army ambushing on both sides of the canyon."
"It seems that the Dali Army has not arrived yet, or maybe it is not a choice to ambush here."
Zhao Dongting's voice came from the dragon chariot, "I ordered the army to accelerate, pass through the canyon before sunset, and then camp."
He had already discussed this with Wen Tianxiang. Wen Tianxiang also thought it would be better to pass through the canyon earlier, so as not to cause any changes.
Yue Peng rode forward and shouted: "The emperor has an order, and the army will accelerate forward!"
The yellow dust rose again, and the horse army took the lead in accelerating its pace.
The infantryman trotted behind him, and the dragon chariot also began to stagger.
Zhao Dongting, however, had a look of enjoyment on his face and suddenly said to Tolando: "Little girl, how about I let you go back to Dadu?"
Tolando almost swayed his teeth and claws.
Apart from those closest people, who dares to call her little girl?
Moreover, Zhao Dongting himself is so immature.
But when she thought that Zhao Dongting tied her to a large pillar in Xiujiang Town and refused to give her food, she didn't dare to show any face to Zhao Dongting.
The sufferings of those few days have already made Princess Mingzhu, who is famous for her willfulness, feel deeply afraid of Zhao Dongting.
Who tortured her so much before?
After anger flashed in her heart, a light came out in her eyes, "Would you like to let me go back?"
"No."
Zhao Dongting smiled and said, "I'm just asking you, but I didn't say I really want to let you go back."
Turandot immediately felt like a deflated temper, leaning against the window, listless.
This hateful guy actually played with her again.
However, she had no interest in glaring at Zhao Dongting. Or rather, she didn't dare to glar anymore.
Who knows what words this guy will use to stimulate her?
Although Zhao Dongting has never tortured her again these days, his words often stimulate her, which has long made Tulando feel numb.
She couldn't tell him or scold him, and she felt that her arrogant skills had been crushed by Emperor Song.
People are under the eaves, and they have to bow their heads if they have any reason or not. Now Princess Mingzhu finally tastes this helplessness.
Seeing her like this, Zhao Dongting felt bored, "Why don't you say anything? Maybe I will change my mind again?"
The march was extremely boring, but Zhao Dongting was not a person who could endure loneliness. Therefore, he could only find some fun from Turando.
But unfortunately, Tolando seemed to have made up his mind to ignore him, but just opened the curtain and scolded Monto again to vent his anger.
The army slowly passed through the valley.
The vision has become wider again. After these two mountains, there is a flat grassland in front of it.
In the wild grassland, the official road stretches into the distance, as if it can directly lead to the place where the sun sets.
The horse army in front of the army was already guarding the surroundings and preparing to camp.
When Zhao Dongting's dragon chariot was hundreds of meters away from the canyon, Yue Peng, who was in front of the army, shouted loudly: "The army camped along the river!"
This command was conveyed layer by layer.
The soldiers who had been traveling for days were as if they were amnesty, and they lined up to the river in the yellow grassland not far away.
But no one noticed that there were several people hiding in the weeds. When the Song army arrived, they quickly crept towards the yin side of the mountain range on the right.
